Back to what I love best! Paper and glue. This first card is an ANYHERO card that I sent, along with the Cards for Heroes Cards. Just a little note of support from our family, to a soldier that needs a little lift! I used the SU! set The Free and the Brave, for this card. SU! cardstock in Night of Navy, Very Vanilla, and Riding Hood Red. I embossed the image, and colored it in with blender pens and ink. Patterned paper is from My Mind's Eye!Here is another Fishy Friends (SU!) card! I love this set so much! It is very fun to color in. I used Tangerine Tango, Kiwi kiss, and Summer Sun cardstock. I also used Tangerine Tango Ink, and Basic Gray Ink. I don't remember where the patterned paper came from, but the stars were perfect! I used the new Swiss Cheese edge punch from EK Success, and a square scalloped Nestabilities Die. After I stamped the cute little guy, I colored him in, using prismacolor pencils and odorless spirits. When he was all colored, I covered him with SU! Crystal Effects. I took a second photo, so you can see the shine and dimension! The Happy Birthday Sentiment is from Purple Onion Designs!Happy Friday!!**Keri**

About Me

I am a Mom to one son. I live in Upstate NY. I do daycare to help support my family and to be able to stay home with my son, in other words, I am avoiding the "starving artist" scenario. I also work nights at the local deli/pizza joint. I enjoy all mediums of crafting, including rubber stamping, scrapbooking, collage, woodworking, and painting. I hope to, someday, be able to make a living on my artistry. I have an online store, which you can visit by clicking the Etsy box at the top of this column. Enjoy what comes out of my work room, and the antics of my family!
